OPINION, Sept. 12, 2025 /Standard Newswire/ — The following is submitted by Dr. Ron Susek of SEA Ministries:
Heaven highly esteems martyrs! Consider the stoning of young Stephen, the first martyr following Jesus’ resurrection. While being stoned to death, he looked heavenward and saw the King of kings and Lord of lords—Jesus Christ—rise from His throne to welcome him home.
Was Charlie Kirk martyred? During Roman days “martyr” (Greek: μάρτυς) meant one who testified truth in a court of law as well as one who testified truth by the surrender of life.
Thus, when Jesus said, “…you shall be my witnesses…” (Acts 1:8) He could have meant both. In the end every disciple except John experienced both “witnessing by word” and “witnessing by death.”
Charlie Kirk has done both. He is a genuine martyr. God will etch his “witness” into the marble of American history. This could lead to the greatest spiritual and cultural awakening since the late 1800s.
What provoked Charlie’s assassination? Jesus answered that question, “If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you” (John 15:18). Jesus added, “They hated me without a cause.”
Those who despise God attempt to shape Him according to their desires. Thus, Jesus said, “Indeed, the hour is coming when whoever kills you will think he is offering service to God” (John 1:2). Thus, they kill with confidence and sleep in comfort.
Charlie’s family, friends and followers are remarkably strong in faith, yet they along with us must bear the weight of grief imposed by this evil act. May the following Biblical insights offer additional strength.
Since mankind is the highest of all creation, to murder is a crime against heaven. After Cain killed Abel, God said, “The voice of your brother’s blood is crying to me from the ground.” Isaiah wrote, “…and the earth will disclose the blood shed on it.” Earth’s soil, moist from the martyrs’ blood, will release this evidence before the Judge of the universe. The gavel will fall as the guilty are banished forever.
John, who wrote the book of Revelation, gives a rare glimpse into the martyrs’ world. They are alive, aware and well, as they dwell “under the altar” (Revelation 6:10). Since altars suggest sacrifice, we can properly call their dwelling “The Altar of Self-Sacrifice.”
Anticipating justice, the martyrs cried out with a loud voice, “O Sovereign Lord, holy and true, how long before you will judge and avenge our blood on those who dwell on the earth?”
The answer came quickly as each was handed a white robe. The robes signified that their hearts were made pure by the blood of the Lamb. Then, a calming voice said, “…rest a little longer until the number of their fellow servants and their brothers should be complete, who were to be killed as they themselves were killed.” (Revelation 6:11).
Such precise monitoring of their number indicates a purpose too great for disclosure today. Clearly, their deaths were neither random nor meaningless.
Take heart! Isaiah said, “Your dead shall live; their bodies shall rise” (Isaiah 26:19). Now, the families knew that their kin shall return to the world’s stage as the “white-robed army of righteousness.”
Then, the prophet calls for music, “You who dwell in the dust, awake and sing for joy.” With that, millions assembled from all ages past to harmonically exalt God’s glory. Such majestic worship belongs to God alone.
Using poetic description, the prophet said, “For your dew is a dew of light…” What could this mean? Perhaps as sparkling dew reflects the early rays of the rising sun, so the shimmering presence of the martyrs may announce Jesus’ entrance for His millennial enthronement.
Finally, Isaiah affirms the martyrs’ return, “…and the earth will give birth to the dead.” As our planet cradles dying seeds until they germinate new life, so the incorruptible bodies of the martyrs will rise to fulfill their divine mission.
In benediction, the prophet turns to us who remain on earth to say, “Come, my people, enter your chambers, and shut your doors behind you; hide yourselves for a little while until the fury has passed by. For behold, the LORD is coming out from his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity, and the earth will disclose the blood shed on it, and will no more cover its slain.”
The apocalypse is coming. The word “apocalypse” means “revelation” or “unveiling.” In that day, not one drop of innocent blood will go unnoticed. Not one last breath on earth will hinder eternal life in heaven. Not one martyr will go unrewarded. Not one hidden evil will go undisclosed. Judgment will fall upon the wicked. Possibly the martyrs will be sent worldwide to administer true justice during the millennial reign of Christ.
Of one thing we are sure, the martyrs, including Charlie Kirt, will return. Just wait a little longer.
Dr. Ron Susek authored The Assyrian Prophecy: A Betrayed and Broken Nation Destined to Rise Anew from the Martyr’s Blood. He is championing the Assyrian cause to see her reestablished as a sovereign state in her original homeland. He believes that Assyria, along with Israel and Egypt, will ultimately act as a gyro stabilizing peace throughout the world.
